New Blogger Theme

I made my third custom layout tonight. I'm not sure if I like this one as well as my current one but I'm going to mess with the Html tomorrow and test it out.

My Boss.....

This is my boss sitting at my desk impersonating me. He has music blasting while he eats a oatmeal cookie from Chuck the Franz guy. Note to everyone, I never prop my feet up like that. Also the music is actually Muzak and is horrible most of the time, So I rarely blast it unless it is something good like the Goo Goo Dolls or the Fray. He thinks he's pretty funny but he forgot to grab a coffee cup to make the impersonation perfect!

Yep......I'm tired and I want to go to bed. However I need a shower and my wife used the last of the hot water. So I must stay up till the water is heated so I can shower. This post is just a way of killing time until that happens. My kids are playing video games, Trevor is playing on the 360 and Ashley is playing on here Game Boy. Jacob is bugging me to let him play webkinz. Whatever happened to Monopoly or Life, or even Battleship??? I'm feeling my age tonight as I think about these things.

I wonder what the kids will be playing when my kids are my age? I'm thinking they'll have complete virtual reality that is so real you can't tell the difference between reality and virtual reality. People will grow addicted to their virtual lives and leave their real lives behind. They just exist in a box that is solar powered with a lazy boy with a built in toilet. Sort of like a futuristic out house. All you'd have to do is order pizza for delivery and you'd never have to move! Ok I think I've waisted about 5 minutes of time here. Only 15 more to go before there is hot water.

Totally bumbed!!!

My wife had a cavity worked on today and is in a lot of pain. We were planning to go to our first interface tonight so we could study the word and enjoy fellowship with other church members. However my wife isn't feeling top notch so we are staying home. It seems like if it isn't a cold or flu keeping you from the good things in life, it is something else. I've decided that I am going to spend sometime with the kids and attempt to make dinner! That is a scary thought! "IT'S SPAM!" sandwiches all around the dinner table tonight! I'll spruce it up with some gouda and garlic.

I wonder if they have organic SPAM yet? That would really make it gourmet!

Tonights Worship And Praise Concert

Tonights concert was awesome!!! All of the beautiful voices singing praise to God was amazing! I didn't want it to end when it did. My favorite but most awkward part of the night is when we got together in a group and prayed together. The 3 people I grouped up with were complete strangers and as nervous as I was about the whole group prayer thing.

So I stepped up and started out. I was doing good there for a bit until I hit the dreaded mental block. Nothing but dead air and no words popping in my head to fill it in with. So I did what my kids do when I make them pray out loud in front of each other. I passed the buck to the next guy. I wanted to pray so much more, but the words weren't coming. I chalk it up to my first time praying in front of complete strangers and use it as a building block.

I am so glad I went tonight. I almost stayed home to be with my wife who is in pain due to a cavity that chipped partially off today. I plan on attending the interface group tomorrow if all goes as planned. I am really excited to share in fellowship and group prayer.

Good night all!

Talked with a friend today.

He is having a hard time with a personal problem. We talked for hours about it. It is really eating him up inside. He asked me what I would do about it. The answer was simple to me. I told him I'd pray constantly to God about it. He said he has done that and nothing has happened for two weeks. I told him that you have to be patient and realize you are on Gods time and not your own.

That really didn't help him any. He then asked me what I would do other then pray. I told him that is a hard question being prayer is what I rely on during hard times. I humored him and told him that I would act like the problem didn't exist and stress would build till I snapped and made the problem worse and lost what was important to me. I kept telling him prayer is the way to go but he seemed discouraged that he found no answer or comfort from his prayers.

I then told him that I would pray for him and so would many others. He got really quite and asked many others? I told him I have a lot of friends that love to pray so I'll get them to pray for you as well. That seemed to have struck a chord because I thought I heard him cry a little. So I need everyone to help pray for grace,patience, and wisdom for my friend. Oh and also comfort and peace. Also while I am making prayer requests please pray for my wife. She broke her tooth today and is in pain. She will not be able to see the dentist till 11 AM tomorrow.

I am excited for church tonight we are having a praise and prayer concert. There is nothing better the awesome music and a lot of prayer! If you don't live in my area you can watch it live @ www.freshlifechurch.com Have a wonderful night everyone!

Blog at ya later!

Bored.....

I am kind of bored today. I think I might read a bit if I can get myself into reading mode. Maybe I'll try to play a little guitar. It has been ages since I picked it up and just strummed away on it. I am really getting ready for vacation. I can't wait to spend the hot summer days at the lake and also hiking! I want to hit glacier park this summer. After 2 years of living here my wife and kids have never seen the park! They have no clue of the beauty they are missing! I am really looking forward to seeing it again. It is like staring into a glimpse of heaven! I am really excited and hope to enjoy that beauty with my family! If you've never seen it this picture still doesn't do it justice!!!
